At age 17, I first discovered the power of curiosity exploring and photographing the streets of Paris. In the summer of 2018, I returned for the first time in over 30 years to rediscover my sense of wonder not just in The City of Lights, but in the modern world. Paris Syndrome is a personal statement on the imperative of exploration and wonder, of not sitting comfortably in our lives and letting ourselves believe that the world is in hopeless decay. In this 44-page collection of photos, I document not only the sights of life on the streets of a great city, but the restoration of my own sense of wonder and appreciation for the world we live in.
